About Me

This blog is my blissful journal of happiness. It’s about everything I adore and people I love. Thanks for stopping by. If you would like to write me, please feel free to email me: diana.mieczan@hotmail.comHave a jolly good day!

Have you been to Budapest before? It's such a gem of a city and I'm not only saying it because it's Balazs' hometown:) Anyway, a few days ago, we stumbled upon those amazing images of Budapest back in the 1900's beautifully merged with photos of the same locations in the present day. Seeing new projects like that makes me realize that cities are living things that evolve, grow, change and adapt with time. So much history in one single snapshot! Aren't they awesome?

Swoon! I don't really miss having very long hair, but this morning I spotted this understated low loose bun and I literally gasped. The simplicity and that fiery colour totally blew me away. I have a photo of my mom when she was in her 20's wearing her hair exactly like that.

So if you fancy giving it a go, here is the how-to:
How long is your hair right now?

A few years ago I fell in love with this tiny little street in Bonn, Germany. Have you heard of it? It’s a short avenue full of
cherry blossom trees that bloom once a year for about 2 weeks and make the
whole place look like a magical pink forest. So when last night, Balazs
reminded me of it, I realized it’s almost time for it to bloom. Supposedly,
this year it will happen around the middle of April, so if you’re lucky enough
to find yourself in Bonn in April, you should totally visit Heerstraße street to enjoy all this goodness in person.

Are you a dress kind-of-girl? In the last couple of years, I've been wearing dresses and skirts more frequently, since I find them so versatile. So, over the weekend I made a list of 10 of my favorite spring-ready dresses that I wouldn't mind having in my closet right now. The awesome part about them is that you can wear them with tights, cardigans, blazers and chunky sweaters before the weather finally warms up!

Spring marks the beginning of a new season with its changing weather, blooming flowers, longer days and love. Somehow spring always feels like the perfect time to fall in love. Seems that I'm not the only one, as Julia Xathos spends her days walking the streets of the city snapping photos of young couples totally and utterly smitten with each other.

I love how candid, real and sweet this series is! Are you in love this spring?

Cheers to the last weekend in March! What are you up to? We're thinking about spending the next two days just wandering around the city, drinking too much coffee and sleeping past moon :) Dearies, have a safe and restful weekend and I'll see you back here on Monday morning. Fancy going down the internet-rabbit-hole? Enjoy!

What
do you think about a multicolour manicure? Recently, I spotted Eva’s weekly colour column and I've been totally smitten with the idea of mixing and
matching different shades this spring. There is something so sassy about those 2 and 3 colour mashups paired with simple uniforms!

Blimey! And just
when we thought we've seen the most amazing cities from all possible angles,
here comes a treat! These incredible images of the world's most iconic spots were snapped as round planets by a Russian photography group. With smart
technology, a few nifty tweaks and a whole lot of talent, we can see Manhattan,
Rome or Chicago at a full 360-degree angle like never before. How awesome is that? It took the team a jaw-dropping eight years and countless
helicopter, airplane and even hot air balloon trips to capture every single
detail. I’m swooning right now. You?

What are your plans for Easter? Are you hosting this year? If
so, here is a little tip on how to make your Easter table look incredible with
very little effort. Each year, my mom makes a carrot and yellow tulip bouquet
for Easter. She says it’s one of the best
conversation starters and a fuss free way to dress up the table! Nothing else is needed since carrots make such an unexpected addition. I
bet radishes with a bunch of lilac would look awesome as well. What do you think?
